>After installing a megasquirt is it worth it to get it tuned in stock form? Maybe just adjusting timing, 93 octane and full exhaust. Would I see any noticeable power gains or should I just wait for bigger modzz?
>always rest left elbow on door when miating >max comfy >left arm is now several shades darker than right arm fug
Adam Reyes
according to miataturbo.net, you can see like ~5hp gains with stock megasquirt tuning. You should learn to tune it yourself though either way.
Sebastian Bennett
this use stock to learn how to use tuning software and tune around it, it'll help a lot as you add bits although i guess you could get new bigger injectors first then tune around those
Zachary Bell
How do I get a Miata without looking like a faggot?
Is a Mazdaspeed 3 the answer?
Ethan Anderson
Mazdaspeed is literally the gayest Miata. So overpriced for the power it makes. Only decent thing about it is the trans. Buy and NA/NB and start building it. Accept your sexuality
Jordan Johnson
The part that makes you a faggot is thinking that your car is whats giving you a craving for cocks. Find a better excuse.
looking at this tomorrow, first time miata buyer. any insight? anything in particular i should probe for?
Gavin Green
Slowed down on the Miata progress to work on the Volvo. Thinking of switching back to the Miata fur a bit. You guys want me to make videos on how to do body work and painting?
Oliver Cooper
Thats a pretty good deal all around. Check for rust in the usual places: lower rocker panels, lower front fenders, trunk and floor pan under seats. Doesn't look like it's been modded so I doubt it was ever driven hard. Ask if timing belt was done at 60k and if not replace it immediately. Good luck hope you get it user
Blake Harris

Kayden Phillips
My NB is in the shop. Threw a P1345 code and wouldn't start, even with a new camshaft sensor. Life is suffering, I was saving up for a PTR 91.
Evan Foster
wow, for fuck's sakes. he was on his way to my house for me to look at the car, but literally turned around halfway and drove home. called me saying "sorry, someone looked at it last night and they just called... they want to buy it so im not coming down"
fuck off
Justin Bailey
Take some time in the engine bay. Make sure its not the earlier ones with the short nose crank problems (i think)
Also, rusted rockers are a commom problem

Just ordered a hard dog roll bar for 94 ,anyone have experience putting one on have some tips?
>Torsen lsd >Better stock setup >Always in better condition than regular miatas
Owen Richardson
>Work as a mailman >right hand drive on the postal truck >problem solved
Robert Johnson
Explain how that justifies their 11k price tag
Spend 11k on a regular NA or NB + parts and you will have a better car in every way possible.
Jack Thomas
Installed after marked swaybars and accidentally this stud. What is the best way to fix it? Tried running the car without swaybars, the comfort was top but the steering was not as responsive and the car didn't handle like a pancake.
Xavier Bennett
Try an extractor/ezout. If that doesn't work drill it out. Get used to this process if you have an NA
Justin Perez
Do you know where I can find a new stud? My first thought was to just try and bang it out with a screwdriver and a hammer.
Henry Morales
How to do basic inspection
Alexander Flores
If you can bang it out just go to the local hardware store and find a bolt/nut combo that will fit

Been saving for a decent Miata for about a month now.
Why is northern IN so devoid of best car? So hard to find a dece one.
Sebastian Robinson
>yo jamal check out dis ride I jacked lmao
Matthew Russell
11k? I've found some for 5-6k
Henry Nelson
One month? kek Almost considering trading my NB for a white ND 1.5
Justin Anderson
i've posted this faggots pics some many times and no ones ever noticed he's listening to a cover of a Garth Brooks song
he's a canadian nigger that likes country music and drives a miata
what the fuck
Jackson Morris
Buy a FAL if you wanna be real fuckin NATO.
Hunter Butler
get a buddy. had to test fit that bitch like 10 times. my friend got lazy and ripped my passenger air bag wires tho and it ended up costing me to fix them ...
Ryan Adams
I'll get both at some point, but right now everything is breaking at the same time (cars, guns, computer, all the expensive stuff).
Benjamin Nguyen
country music is great, if you ever worked a hard day in your life you could relate
but yes i agree thats a strange combo

Should I buy a mx5 2004 with 101k? pros and cons? Do they take well to boost?
Alexander Jackson
Please Mr Cummy. I want to repaint my hood because the clear coat is peeling really bad but I'm poor as fuck. I'm considering dipping the hood black but I know I'll look like an enormous tool instead of a schmuck with a beat up car
Grayson Moore
Where do I find the color code on my NA?
Mason Baker
Ok I'll make some videos from start to finish on the next part I paint.
It's on the inside of the driver door, along with the VIN and all that other shit.

William Clark
I don't think that cars get much more fun than a Miatan, maybe something even smaller and lighter could be more fun. I've about 0 experience with cars, but I have no real problem working with the Miata, everything is very intuitive.
Leo Sanchez
My '90. new wheels, led/projector headlights, and tint installed dis week
Connor Miller
Btw blue headlights are shit tier and hideous mine are white it's just the photo.
Cooper Phillips
what is reading comprehension he said mazdaspeed3 you autistic fuck, not msm
Cooper James
Awe yea brush are those some rota grids?
Joshua Fisher
No they're some random cheapo eBay brand. Similar to the grids though, but notice the universal bolt pattern on mine instead of just 4x100
Angel Fisher
What color is best Miata color? Don't say red.
Nathan Barnes
BRITISH RACING GREEN
Easton Perry
Any color that isn't black Preferably blue or BRG
Jayden Mitchell
Black, this is true for most cars
Joshua Sanchez
I can dig it. Would fit my bike too lel Still like orange or yellow more 2bh I'm in love guys, I want one. > have to save up at least a year or more to get one in good condition in a nice color
Boooring.

What's wrong with BBS?
Matthew Scott

He's just jealous because a set of original BBS wheels cost several times more than what he drives.

theyre heavy, dated shit

Hudson Kelly
Me and my musty gal.
Logan Nguyen
>guaranteed replies
it honestly gives me hope for the NA miata when i see them ruined BUT also doesnt have a proper rollbar
so when the inevitable happens and the faggot crashes he'll just die and wont continue to ruin cars
Camden Rivera
not him but they kinda clash with the smooth clean look of the car
Chase Brown
I realize that the entire car is played out, but BBS wheels are meme status at this point. May as well be putting them on shopping carts ffs.
Sebastian Parker
Because they are that fucking good
Elijah Russell
what has you upset, mate?
Lincoln Long
After a lot of tweaking and modifying, I got them to fit almost perfect. I might pull them back off tomorrow and do a little more work to the passenger side, but the driver's side fits really well now.
Xavier Collins
looks good user
how much didya pay
Connor Hall
>tfw I'm not sure if my Miats is worth fixing
Considering I'm in the market for a bigger car I'm so conflicted.
Carson Collins
Mine's much worse. Won't pass inspection in the fall so it's either spend $1500 or get a new car.
Gavin Martinez
$600 + shipping.
Going to test them out tomorrow to make sure they're fully waterproof. Everyone says they leak water into the trunk, so I made sure to seal everything up really well.
Dominic Anderson
Where should I start for trying to reduce wind noise from the hard top? At 80km/H I can hear it coming from the windows and there's a lot of noise as if it's loose when I go over bumps
Angel Gonzalez
How'd I do with my rim selection?

Luke Watson
I've been considering buying an ND miata, should I get the 1.5 or 2L model?
Hudson Russell
bad tbqh famadam
Gabriel Sullivan
It's in desperate need of a 1 inch drop
Also, your rear wheels need to be aligned
Henry Taylor
How come? They look fine to me.
Colton Wright
Maybe it was just the angle. Didn't look like your rear wheels had the characteristic slight camber that miatas have.
Almost literally shitting my pants right now. This rollback can't be good. I thought I had found the one. It's being sold at a listed 70k miles. How scared should I be?
Jack Sanders
Good luck user. I'm from IN and have given up hope, they all have rust
Brody Morris
>salvage title >rebuilt 2 years later >3 owners
Run for the hills.
Jason Walker
Was that the one with wood screws from a few threads ago? Looks nice
As long as you like it bro
There's plenty of southern miats you could drive to
Juan Williams
>tfw I bought a pristine '99 NB in Michigan City 1 month ago Sorry lad, there will be more though
Camden Davis
This is the problem with megasquirt.
It is now so easy (literally plug and play), and so cheap to get stand alone management that countless numbers of plebs are installing them in their mazdas, when they have no idea of how to calibrate an engine!
Spend 6 months reading books on engines. Then try tuning the engine.
You will achieve more clarity of engine performance in 6 hours tuning the car than you could reading the books, BUT you need a full understanding of the mechanical and electrical systems, and a good understanding of the fuel system calculations, and what the parameters in the ecu actually do. You also need to know what air fuel ratios and ignition timing are all about (in depth, not just what they are). Without any knowledge you're just changing values and hoping its right.
The auto tune is good. But it won't do acceleration enrichment calibration, cold start or warm up calibrations, idle calibration etc.
None of this is difficult to learn, just fucking do it. Fuck off
Christopher Hall
Newfag here, can you explain the Miata memery to me? Are they particularly good cars or what?
Why are they so popular on Veeky Forums?
Lucas Jenkins
It's popular for honda civic reasons
>shitty slow car >cheap used because nobody actually wants one >aftermarket
But RWD so you can rip hektik skids and dagumi into the ditch every time winter rolls around
